Help pricing L3010

[HarleyBob]

I am having a tough time matching the average price folks are getting for a L3010 HST with loader
and R4 tires. It seems people are paying around 17,500 + tax. Any help I can get negotiating would
be appreciated. I am also interested in a Land Pride 25 series rotary cutter and a 3 pt finish mower.
Is it best to negotiate tractor seperate or in package?
Thanks

Ditto for me. Best price in northern VT so far is $18,300 with FEL and R4s. Any idea what the dealer cost is on these babies?

I've found www.tractorsmart.com to be very helpful in coming up with list prices for Kubota. They may be last year's prices, but they should still be close.

L3010HST $17,150
FEL $3,950
R-4's $??? (about $200 maybe)

It seems in the Northeast that a 15% discount is about the best one can hope for.

Yes, I am getting about a 15% discount. That is probably good on the more popular tractors like the HST models. The discounts are more like 20% on gear shift economy L models.

I don't have any idea what list or "invoice" price is...but the dealer quoted me $14000 for the L3010 and $3400 for FEL.

The price included R4's, 700 lbs ballast, taxes and dilivery (only about 15 miles away).

If anyone is interested in the dealer's name in Western NC, send me an email I will provide contact info.

Well, my latest quote for a package is as follows:


3010hst with R4 and loader (no ballast)
5' LP rotary cutter
72" LP rear finish mower
66" LP box scraper
12" LP Post Hole Digger
All Land Pride are series 15 except the scraper is a Series 25.
My total is 22,000 + tax.

Does that sound close?

I bought a L3410HST about two months ago and paid 20,200 for the L3410, LA481 FEL with HD bucket, 6' landpride cutter, and 6' land pride rear blade. The L3010 was going to be $1000 less. Hope this helps.

Forgot that included ballast in rear tires also. So far I love the L series and so glad I went with HST.

In December I gave $14,500 for a 3010HST with turf tires and foldable ROPS. A FEL would have been $3600 more. A Woods RD72 rear discharge mower was $1500. All prices plus tax. I think I saw on this board where dealer cost on a 3010HST was around $12,600. I don't know if Kubota pays the dealer to assemble the tractor or whether the dealer has to do it on his own. I would want to know the individual price of every item and then negotiate a package price. You won't be sorry you bought a 3010. The 3010 is about the most tractor you can buy for the money as a 2910 was only $500 less.
